>I don't think we do. That's why I phrased it that way. I expected some flak for bringing antibiotics into the story, because the consequences are so dire. And yet, these haven't been outlawed in the US and many countries. Maybe they should, I don't know. The point being, would it have the desired effect: reducing resistance?
I find it interesting that antibiotics seem to do a much harm as good. True they kill off bacteria that threaten us, but they also kill all the beneficials. So, on balance, are they a good thing or not?
Best wishes
